Default First real test.

Got my 96 XJ a couple of weeks ago and have been going over it changing all the fluids, plugs, lights, welding up the seat, door check, mirror and more. Leaving shortly for a 13 hour trip. Got my tool box in the rear but I think she is good to go.

Keep a tow service in mind if youre going that far. I first got my jeep on the road i took it everywhere and decided to take it on a grand tour well half way through the fuel pump jammed up....

Just got back from the trip, around 700 miles not a hiccup. Drove 70 - 75, got 18.2 MPG. The ride was fine. 96 XJ Country
